Zebra’s Desktop series thermal printers
offer space-saving performance that
includes flexible connectivity and
unmatched reliability and versatility.
High-quality desktop printers deliver unmatched
reliability and versatility.
Zebra’s Desktop printer family offers a comprehensive choice
of direct thermal (LP) and thermal transfer (TLP) models for
2- and 4-inch wide printing—each with distinctive characteristics
to ensure your specific application is fully satisfied.
Small Size with No Compromise in Performance
Media loading is simplified thanks to the OpenACCESS™
design, which tucks the printhead into the printer’s top cover,
and provides a clear media window for easy monitoring.
Just drop the media in, shut the cover, and start printing!
Maximize workplace efficiency with a 5-inch media roll
capacity (for fewer label roll changes) and a space-saving,
compact design. Their durable, dual-wall construction ensures
that Desktop series printers will withstand rough handling in
your busy work environment.

Zebra’s Desktop series thermal printers
offer space-saving performance that
includes flexible connectivity and
unmatched reliability and versatility.
High-quality desktop printers deliver unmatched
reliability and versatility.
Zebra’s Desktop printer family offers a comprehensive choice
of direct thermal (LP) and thermal transfer (TLP) models for
2- and 4-inch wide printing—each with distinctive characteristics
to ensure your specific application is fully satisfied.
Small Size with No Compromise in Performance
Media loading is simplified thanks to the OpenACCESS™
design, which tucks the printhead into the printer’s top cover,
and provides a clear media window for easy monitoring.
Just drop the media in, shut the cover, and start printing!
Maximize workplace efficiency with a 5-inch media roll
capacity (for fewer label roll changes) and a space-saving,
compact design. Their durable, dual-wall construction ensures
that Desktop series printers will withstand rough handling in
your busy work environment.
Flexible Networking and Connectivity

serial, parallel, and USB interfaces, or opt for Ethernet
